When working with acrylic or polyurethane water it's is not that hard to get professional results if you take your time and do it right. I'll show you the steps to take to get it right the first time and make your silk flower arrangements look like they were freshly cut then placed carefully into your vase of clear, clean water..

For Best Results

1) Have florals that you want to arrange selected and ready.

2) The best containers for mixing are tall and narrow, not too large and open.

3) Pour equal amounts of each bottle down the sides of the mixing container to avoid excess air bubble formation. Allow the poured material to drain into the mixing container. "B" will drain slower than "A". NEVER use unequal amounts; this results in bubbles and / or a slower setting time.

4) Stir the material for 3-5 minutes, scraping the the side of the mixing container while stirring. STIRRING TOO RAPIDLY CREATES BUBBLES...any small bubbles formed will escape during the curing cycle.

5) QuickWater is permanent. You will not be able to use your floral vase for any other purpose onece QuickWater has cured.

6) Make sure your floral vase is clean on the inside before mixing. Add rocks or marbles before pouring mixed compound from your mixing container. Pour your mixed compound into vase. Add your flowers. Cure time depends on the amount of material you mixed and the air temperature. Cure time should be approximately 8 hours.

Following these instructions carefully when using QuickWater Artificial Water will give you the best and most natural look of water that won't yellow like other similar acrylic waters.
